Yeah, I had to check that this wasn't in aneurysm posting.

Pretty sure it is two messages jumbled up for some stupid reason.

"Nothing is impossible"

"Everything is possible"

Should be split up into three separate parts. Top part containing the Everything/Nothing, second "is" and the third the impossible/possible.

... but even so the likelyhood of just reading it as "Nothing is possible. Everything is impossible." is still there.

Office culture.

This causes me physical pain, as if my brain was trying to escape my skull.

Everything impossible; Nothing is possible. But nothing means everything. So everything is in a quantum superposition of being possible, yet impossible until it collapses into a single outcome, duh.

so how are you supposed to read it? i genuinely can't figure it out

I think the intention is that you would read it as "Everything is impossible" followed by "Nothing is impossible"

But then I looked at it again and got "Everything is impossible / Nothing is possible"

So all in all, I think it's a poorly conceived sign

I think, it's just supposed to be an inspirational thingamabob: Nothing is impossible, everything is possible.

"No, everything I am is possible."

You sure are, old sport.

Yeah I hate these, even if legible. Hang up nice art and be done. If you need "motivational quotes", your job probably sucks.

They left out the first half of the quote.

Some of the things that you claim to be are, in fact, impossible!

No. Everything I am is possible.

Where is the grammatical mistake? It's unusual to use the contraction "I'm" in a sentence like this rather than writing out "I am" but it's not technically wrong.
